What is Beyoncé’s vocal range?
Beyoncé's vocal range is commonly cited as B2 to D#6 (Eb6) — about 3.3 octaves, or 40 semitones, and is usually classified as mezzo-soprano. Full voice is cited up to around G5; everything above that comes from head voice.
Dense mezzo chest voice with rapid-fire runs; stacks a belted mix near Eb5 without thinning out. That cited span is wider than 81% of the 357 voices in this library.
